The dapper, mustache-twirling little Belgian with the egg-shaped head and curious mannerisms has solved some of the most puzzling crimes of the century - and, in his own humble opinion, is "probably the greatest detective in the world". In this complete collection of more than 50 stories, ranging from short tales to novellas, Poirot faces violent murders, poisonings, kidnappings, and thefts - all solved with his characteristic panache. Only Agatha Christie could have devised cases worthy of Hercule Poirot's skill and "little gray cells".

We find ourselves in the austerity of the 1950s, when England's aristocracy was feeling the pinch. Bertie Wooster has gone to a residential self-help school to learn how to darn his socks. Until he re-emerges, Jeeves has signed up with Bill Rowcester (pronounced Roaster), an earl who is failing to make ends meet in trade, and yearning to sell his stately home, which has charm and damp in equal measure. In his new environment Jeeves is required to exert his mammoth brain to what would be breaking point for any normal intellect.

Webster's Dictionary gives the meaning of the word "miasma" as "an infection floating in the air; a deadly exhalation". And in the opinion of Mr. Robert Ferguson, that description, though perhaps a little too flattering, on the whole summed up Master Roland Bean pretty satisfactorily. Until the previous day, Master Bean had served Mr. Ferguson in the capacity of office-boy. But there was that about Master Bean which made it practically impossible for anyone to employ him for long.

His niece, the beautiful Ann Moon, is engaged to "Biscuit", Lord Biskerton, who doesn't have very much of the stuff and so he has to escape to Valley Fields to hide from his creditors. Meanwhile, his old school friend Berry Conway, who is working for Frisby, himself falls for Ann--just as Biscuit falls for her friend Kitchie Valentine. Life in the world of Wodehouse can sometimes become a little complicated.

Don't buy this version of the wonderful Wodehouse stories
These are wonderful stories but this is the worst ever reading of them. The accent I'd ask wrong... Surely Bertie had to have an upper class London accent. And as for Jeeves, somehow his witty, ironic lines have become stiff and humourless. I love these stories and tried hard to persevere but had to abandon this recording a third of the way through. Just dreadful. Probably spoiled by the wonderful reasons by Martin Jarvis, but even without that comparison, this reading is just all wrong. Horrible.

Can't tell whether the narrator is American or Scottish or what but the English accent is nowhere near right for these characters.

Frustrating and distracting, the confused accents!
I'm a huge Wodehouse fan, but it is torture listening to this narration. B. J. Harrison can't seem to make up his mind about the accents, and his Jeeves is a flat, monotonous attempt at copying Stephen Fry's Jeeves from the t.v. series with Hugh Laurie.
I find myself so distracted by the ever changing accents, especially the random American pronunciations that keep appearing, that I can't focus on the stories. I am not sure I'll be able to stomach fifteen hours of this.
Don't waste your credits or your time with this one!

Just What the Doctor Ordered
Any additional comments?
I love P. G. Wodehouse's writing so much that I didn't think it possible to enjoy it more. B.J. Harrison proved me wrong. His narration and voice acting increased my enjoyment of of these stories exponentially. He brought them to life in such an engaging and realistic way I that felt as if I were a fly on the wall of Bertie Wooster's flat. This was the first audio book I downloaded during a horrible migraine in which I could not read or watch T.V. and had to ensconce myself in a darkened room. P. G. Wodehouse and B. J. Harrison somehow managed to make me laugh through the pain. Literally a lifesaver.

I Love P.G. Wodehouse
This is a funny collection of stories by British writer P.G. Wodehouse. Many of them deal with a ridiculous English aristocrat and his "man" called Jeeves. This is where the statement "Ask Jeeves" must have come from. There are additional stories, but I found the humor mounting higher and higher in the Jeeves stories particularly.
The stories are hilarious and the reader does them justice. All in all, a great group of stories.

Better than Jonathan Cecil
Yes, I dare to say that, and I adored Mr. Cecil's rendering of Wodehouse, until I tried BJ Harrison. SO glad I did! Now I deliberately seek Mr. Harrison's narrations of Wodehouse. His pacing is, IMO, much better, not so rapid that the characters often sound spastic. Mr. Harrison gives a unique voice to every character and they all sound like real people, not caricatures, and he does women better than most of the countless male narrators I have listened to, and is equal with the best of them. He also puts his entire soul into the performance, or so it seems to me. Wodehouse comes to life! There are many American characters in these delightful, brilliant, wonderful, hysterically funny stories, and Mr. Harrison plays them to perfection while doing a great job with the contrasting British accent. I'm American, and I don't slam audio books based on how absolutely perfectly a British narrator does American accents.
I will listen to this Audio book every now and then for the rest of my life. I LOVE everything about it. Please Mr. Harrison, keep narrating!

Terrible narration
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Bertie Wooster is as English as they come but this is narrated with an American accent! Extremely disappointing and a waste of money.
What didn’t you like about B. J. Harrison’s performance?
This book should not be read with an American accent!

Really bad.
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
I couldn't get past the first 3 minutes. I know the stories are great - I've read them before. But this reading is dreadful.
What didn’t you like about B. J. Harrison’s performance?
The reader is clearly an american trying to put on an English accent and failing miserably - rather like Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins.
Any additional comments?
Don't buy it. Look for a reading by an natural English voice.
If there was any way I could get my money back I would ask for it.

Ignore this collection
Would you try another book written by P. G. Wodehouse or narrated by B. J. Harrison?
Not at all... if the author was english. BJ Harrison does not understand the English language written by an English Author. It is so annoying that I had to stop playing this as I kept getting angry at the inability to pronounce names of people. Take Chiswick.... an american will say... Chis Wick which is NOT right... Chisick is how this is pronounced. There are many errors like this and also... an american trying to do the english accent is just not pleasant to my ears. An american person probably would not know the difference. If there is an american author that BJ Harrison has done I would be interested... just not an english one.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Jeeves and Wooster
What didn’t you like about B. J. Harrison’s performance?
trying to do an English accent and mis pronounce the English names and places.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The P.G. Wodehouse Collection?
the whole book unless it was done by a native english speaker
Any additional comments?
unhappy i have bought it. I was on a long 12 hour drive and had it on for some time and it just made me more and more upset.

Narrator unsuitable for Wodeshouse
Woodhouse's stories are among the funniest portrayals of life among the British well-to-do and the narrator needs to have the upper class accent & light delivery to convey Bertie Wooster's amiable but clueless nature & Jeeves' stately demeanor.
The narrator has a curious mid-Atlantic accent and he plods along with the merest hint of colour or humour. Hugh Laurie would be a perfect narrator; his performance in Three Men in a Boat is gloriously funny. B J Harrison is not gloriously funny, or winning, merely colourless.
